This development is made of 3 parts.
- AFFILIATES core
- The Mailing Printer Scheduler
- GPE: a simple graphic text editor
With these programs you can create a small database and some
documents (addresses for mailing, member cards, templates, listing ...)
that are
usually needed for managing a community, a school or any association.
These pieces of software are written in C and based on the Linux
OS but have also been ported on MS-Windows , the
user interface is based on the GTK-3
libraries in order to give the Linux user his usual environment. On Windows the native GUI in available.
The programs are not using any external database structure
and
are designed to give the user an easy and direct manipulation approach.
The database structure is full text based and so gives a very
easy access way to other programs. No other server ( apache, php,
...) or database (mysql, oracle ...) program is required to run Affiliates.
You will be able to import or export data via Excel like (CSV) tables,
so you can migrate to another utility if this one doesn't fit your
expectations.
The Affiliates software will
connect to the Internet for SMTP support only.
The Linux version can work in networking
and need the NFS setup to be fully deployed.
The Windows version can also work in networking.
